Citizenship

Council conducts citizenship ceremonies on behalf of the Department of Immigration and Border Protection.

Council does not handle the application process of becoming an Australian Citizen. The Department of Immigration and Border Protection handles all aspects of applying to become a citizen and inviting applicants to attend a ceremony where they will make their Australian Citizenship Pledge.

Please contact the Department of Immigration and Border Protection on 131 880 or visit their website www.citizenship.gov.au for information about becoming an Australian Citizen.
